Sunday Column (67)


Another week has passed without being noticed.
We came back from the wedding in Germany on Sunday night. On Monday it was bank holiday in the UK, so I tried to make the most of the time and the family went for a walk and chilled. I also felt very tired from the weekend, and noticed getting a cold :-( But no whining….

On Monday night there was the last episode of Flash Forward, a TV series I am actually glad about that it is over. You get hooked in the first few episodes and then realise that you aren’t interested. But you cannot stop until the end. And the end wasn’t great.

Tuesday I went off to mexad’s first birthday party to Cologne along with my new member of staff. So it was a good trip, some beers and of course a lot of meetings and work. We came back late on Wednesday. Thursday I went to friends’ wedding in Essex. A lovely country / golf club atmosphere, lovely weather and Jen’s and mine first English wedding. We had to leave early and I drove, so we were home by 11 or so.

That was my week really. Friday gave me the opportunity to catch up on a lot of work and I was successful in getting a lot of it done. A day in the office which passed very quickly but got me on top of things. We have our new office lease signed and will be moving as of 1st of July.

Saturday morning I stole myself away to have a massage. I should go more often but the venue is very far away. The afternoon was under one motto: chilling! BBQ, boy, fun & sun. Desperately needed that as Colin’s and many other baby’s birthdays are coming up over the next few weekends.

The gadget of the week must be these cuff links: 4GB USB Flash drive to carry on your sleeve. At $195 a pair maybe too expensive for a father’s day present.

Ok, what a wonderful weekend, busy week and lots of things ahead. It should be a more quiet week – let’s see.

Have a good one,
Volker

    Man, you keep getting these colds; maybe you shouldn’t be wearing the kilts as often, eh? By the way, I didn’t know you had any Scottish blood in you, or are you supporting a team or something else?

    And Colin’s almost a year old? Man, time moves fast!

    I know…. :-)

    My wife’s Scottisch, hence the boy is 50% Scottish. You could say that I married into the clan, so carrying on the tradition for Colin to take over.

    Time really passes quickly.

    Read about your hot tub experience this morning, funny story :-)

    Thanks; the things that happen to me!

    By the way, do you notice below here in the comments area that you have a message saying that comments are closed?

    Hmm, I can see that. But you can still submit comments, no?
    Weird.

    Yes I can; it is weird. But it might make others think they can’t submit comments.
